The International journal of philosophy of Kant’s Brazilian society – Studia Kantiana – invites the academic community to submit articles, critical notes, reviews, translations, and discussions for the special dossier "Kant and neo-Kantian schools: celebration of 100 years of Ernst Cassirer’s Philosophy of Symbolic Forms", which will be edited by Rafael Garcia (UNICAMP), Adriano R. Mergulhão (IFSP), Ivânio L. de Azevedo Jr. (UFCA/UFC) and Lucas A. D. Amaral (PUC-SP – PNPD/CAPES).

Considering the relevant increase and renewed interest in the works of the so-called "neo-Kantians" in the international philosophical circuit, this special dossier seeks to foster a quality discussion regarding the mentioned philosophical movement in dialogue with its vast and multifaceted context.

It is an intentionally broad scope to bring to the debate the numerous discussions of the representative figures of this plural philosophical movement that was at the origins of the main trends of contemporary philosophy, namely, phenomenology, analytic philosophy, and critical theory. Furthermore, it treats of bringing to the Brazilian philosophical discussion the neo-Kantian schools and authors, their reception of Kant's work, the interfaces with the areas of knowledge of their time (late 19th century and early 20th century) and, finally, to celebrate the centenary of Ernst Cassirer’s opera magna  – which dates to April 1923 – namely, the first volume of his Philosophy of Symbolic Forms.
